Hi, all, Notwithstanding my history of GUI rejection, I'm trying to make peace with the SAGE notebook, which I think is pretty neat. The latest incarnation (I'm using 2.7.1, on Mac OS X, with Safari) looks pretty good.
However, I run into odd behavior that makes me think that I'm just inept. I'm hoping someone can shed some light for me. Here's an example. I enter the following: {{id=0| def CompSum(a,b): return a+b }}} {{{id=1| CompSum(3,4) /// 7 }}} {{{id=3| 2+2 /// 4 }}} {{{id=4| Q.<i,j,k>=QuaternionAlgebra(QQ,-3,4) }}} {{{id=12| Q /// Quaternion algebra with generators (i, j, k) over Rational Field }}} {{{id=10| Q.discriminant() /// 2304 }}} and so far, so good. Then I do {{{id=11| Q.is_commutative() }}} {{{id=14| }}} I expect something printed, but nothing shows (and the 'id=14' cell is "empty"). Even more puzzling is {{{id=15| 2+2 }}} {{{id=16| }}} This seems quite repeatable. The Log verifies the above. If I use SAGE from the shell, and repeat the above, I see what I would expect (False and 2+2 for the last two). The 'server' window (from which I run "sage -notebook") is littered with entries like 2007/07/29 16:01 -0700 [HTTPChannel,5,127.0.0.1] Quitting ignored worksheet process for 'My First Try'. These show up for each of the above. Perplexedly, Justin -- Justin C.
